Half of this thread could just be "Hey who else owns a Boss HM-2?"

To which I'd say: Yes I do, yes it sounds that bad, and yes it sounds that... good.

I run a Metalzone through a Line6 Spider on the Insane setting, both cranked all the way up. Welcome to the Tone Zone.

Tuck your tail and run
Don't move an inch you war-pig gently caress
You just stand right there and receive your judgment

All their reign falls to the earth just the same
And even as I waste these words on you and your mock reality
You'll still go down in history, see:

I actually want to address this seriously. I see this about her often. Or Courtney from Spiritbox. I don't want to suggest that flipping between screaming and singing is easy because both sides of that require lots of practice. I just think a lot of people equate harsh vocals with high volume and strained vocal cords but that is super not true. People like Tatiana could probably deliver those same distorted vocals at a speaking level. When people can't understand how singers like her can flip back and forth, I assume they don't know that you can (and SHOULD) achieve those sounds at a whisper level. That isn't crapping on them. It seriously sounds like massive screaming.

I have a friend who was the vocalist in a local metal band, he demonstrated this very thing to me. However, it still took him a moment to switch between dirty and clean, whereas Tatiana seems to be able to switch without that pause to adjust. That's what I find amazing about her.

I’ve been wanting to bump the metal thread to recommend a couple great underground metal collectives from Southern California that I have not seen discussed here: Rhinocervs, which I’m pretty sure is defunct now, and Black Twilight Circle which is still active.

I discovered this stuff in the early 2010s and have been a fan ever since. Most of this stuff has a really raw aesthetic if you’re into that kind of thing and they do mostly cassette releases. Much like how Scandinavian black metal got inspiration from Norse/pagan mythology and, the bands adjacent to BTC do a similar thing but with ancient Mayan and indigenous Mexican imagery.

I really dig this poo poo but I don’t really know how popular it is outside of SoCal metalheads so I wanted to share with the metal thread! Here’s a good breakdown of a bunch of the bands involved.

Rhinocervs compilation. I love the dark mystique of this stuff. Some of the bands don’t even have names, making it difficult to learn much about the people responsible for it.

I started dating a girl in July who tolerates my metal stuff but isn't full in on Opeth, High on Fire, Sleep and Electric Wizard.

I was talking poo poo about Mastodon losing their metal edge and turning into a boy band that cares about vocal harmonies more than anything and then remembered she was in choir, so I got my EDM and blues/soul girlfriend into metal with Crack the Skye because, "they like singing!"

Anyway this is how I got into Mastodon

I really want to like The Body but all I can hear is that screaming goat meme from a few years ago and it completely takes me out of it. I can dig screaming/wailing vocals in black metal, but for some reason in The Body it just reminds me of that bloody goat and it spoils it all for me. It’s a shame because the rest of the music is great

And as a personal favorite, if all you happen to remember about Gwar is weird costumes and weirder 90's novelty songs about Saddam Hussein, well they had a bit of a not-so-small change of direction in the early 2000's and turned into a crazy skilled metal power house
